“Does Quicken retain function after subscription terminates? I have QHB2015 and do not want to loose the manual functionality that I currently have. I don't want to buy Q2019 if it will make my database un-useable without making a purchase every year.”

Yes; it will retain manual functions. About the only thing you'll lose is anything that requires electronic connection capabilities (like if you download transactions from bank or credit card). If you upgrade to the newer versions with the subscriptions, you will have to upgrade every year because Quicken has included a "wonderful" Update reminder to the right of your Quicken screen (within your working area) that never goes away until you upgrade. I spent an hour on the phone with Quicken to try to get this removed and they finally admitted to me that it was part of the software and could only be removed by upgrading the program.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Q is now a subscription model. I had Q2018 and lost most functionality after my year ended. I bought Q 2019 but have not yet been able to get back what I had with Q 2018. Q 2015 was not a subscription model - it was a straight purchase and you will (I believe) have to get your answer from Q. Hope this helps a little.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you get a new OS like WIN10, you are screwed! It will not start. Or if you simply purchase a new computer...
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believer that you will have all functions that don't require on-line activity. I have a client who is still using Quicken 2004 because he doesn't download any information. He uses the database, reporting and reconciliation features.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would just keep the 2015 version.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believe you will be able to continue to use your existing version of Quicken at least until Quicken doesn't support the older version and force you to buy the newest version which you now will have to pay for each year.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes...the essential part of the database will work for you. Except that Quicken will no longer connect to your financial institutions on its own and download your transactions. You will have to enter them manually.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
